Bitcoin plummeted to a low of around $60,000 after the Crypto Fear & Greed Index hit its lowest score since mid-2022, when the Terra blockchain collapsed.
Crypto market sentiment has slumped to its lowest level in over three and a half years amid Bitcoin falling by double-digit percentage points to a low of around $60,000.
The Crypto Fear & Greed Index fell to a score of 9 out of 100 on Friday, indicating “extreme fear” in the market and hitting its lowest point since June 2022, when sentiment and the market fell in the wake of the collapse of the Terra blockchain a month earlier.
The index has been at a low for the last fortnight as Bitcoin (BTC) has tanked 38% from its 2026 high of $97,000 in just three weeks, wiping out all gains for the past sixteen months.
